The sun is shining today and I do believe that June is going to be a lovely month to either stay smokefree or to get cracking on with setting a quit date and then look forward to a lovely smokefree summer

I'm going to set up a blog, or maybe a question, (not sure which way is best yet) so that we can have everybody's quit dates etc easily to hand. We can always add to it and every now and again (as it drops off the bottom!) I shall copy it into a fresh new post We'll know where everyone is up to then. It also gives the opportunity for some of our quieter members a chance to let us know how they are doing

I'm back in the office now, I have full access to the internet as I seemed to have been experiencing the worse network problems at home, this included TV, telephone and broadband and so I could only access here via my mobile which is so fiddly!

Hows everybody doing today then?

Remember to stay as positive as you can and the world and all around you will be eaier to deal with

Please use our daily chat to let us know how you are doing with your quit attempt, at whatever stage you are at - Planning, preparing, quitting, staying stopped and even relapsing....

However, if you have any specific questions, then please still post in the questions section, or if you want to blog seperately on your quit story then please do so.

Remember, that any questions that you have may help others wondering the same thing

Hi Emjay, I completed week 5 last night so from today it's start of week 6. I'm still finding it quite difficult to believe - and running!!

4 years agoHidden

I stopped on the 3rd of March so that's 3 months and 3 days or 95 days or 2280 hours or 136800 minutes or 8208000 seconds...but most importantly about 2000 roll-ups that I've not smoked. Not that I'm counting.

Yep! I'm logged in all the time and it's only this site that I'm having trouble with. Everytime I want to post, or switch pages I have to sign in all the time. Going to get our lovely Mr IT folks in work to take a look as HealthUnlocked are saying it isn't them.

Dont you talk to me about snails!!!!! huh got home from work, went into the greenhouse to have a chat, and water them all, and to my horror!!-- well those flippin slug pellets i put down are absolutely s--- erm useless, cus i think all the snails around here have quit smoking, and are now snackin on my plants.

So now i'm giving them all flying lessons, tell you what?? there not very good at it,

hi sue , I think i need carol vorderman to work out how many piggies ive had in my life time. from 17yrs to 63yrs old . dont know where to start. just glad i have finished. lets all keep up the good work.

pete, you were right about our working out from when we quit. The bit about carol vorderman was if i worked it out from when in started smoking at 17yrs old. Being an old diddy and a nutty one at that I thought may be you have the brains to work it out. Your not as nutty as me. See you soon young man. x

Hi Pete you just missed a bit, we were adding up how many we've not had when i said it would be scary to think how many piggies we had smoked so we started working that out as well, think it was a shock when we got that number

Every time I come on in the evening everyone's obviously on line so we go on a go-slow then my computer crashes - it's the same every night When that happens it just sends me straight to the cupboard for the chocs or whatever I can lay my hands on - GRRRR!!

my pc same, i find if i go straight on to windows explorer it seems to work, but if i go onto aol. its slow or crashes. as you can see up early again. Are you on one of your runs this morning. Not going out first thing as ankles swollen already, must be going to be a warm day. Off to docs but dont think he will be able to help. Ah well gives me something to think about instead of them piggies. catch up later. x

morning andie. weather could go either way today. hope it picks up for you. Yeah your right did get silly last night. and as for mature people I agree with you. mind you anyone reading these blogs wouldnt think so. catch up later as you will be getting ready to go out now.

Hey Pete! Where are you? Hope you haven't gone out to hide in your shed with a secret stash - look how far you've come mate - stay strong and don't let all us women gang up on you. You know we can't manage without you - don't say you've gone to bed already, it's only half past eight!!!

I've updated the post with everyone's quit dates and as soon as it falls off the edge I'll repost it

You folks are all so funny, you have me in stitches. Pete has certainly been getting some stick but it's obvious that he loves it and I'm not in any doubt that he gives as good as he gets! The poor fella is on the shift he hates too, bless him. Night night Pete, hope your shift flies by for you

Sue, you have done your Dad so proud. I hope knowing this helps to keep you strong. Positive vibes being sent you for tomorrow

Lenne, you are doing brilliant and you're such a bright sparkling little star. You're a proper winner

Jillygirl, over 2,000 smokes that you've not had, that is fantabulous! How much in pennies and pounds?! Give yourself a pat on the back

Andi, I find the same with my network lately, I give it the grrrrrrrr factor! How could you ever begin to imagine the time spent in smoking over 300 odd thousand piggies... Crazy! A few extra chocs are so deserved. Enjoy them

Lovely to have you joining in on the chat today Cathryn. Hope to see you tomorrow
